electronic Ticketing - a Case-Study
- The electronic ticketing was developed within the scope of the Go!Card project. It is used as a test object for the techniques for the development of secure smartcard applications that are developed in the Go!Card project. The electronic ticketing case study deals with an e-commerce scenario for the electronic sale of railway or flight tickets. The customers buy their tickets from a server that transmits the signed and encrypted tickets to the customer, where they are loaded on the customers smartcard. Then the smartcard decrypts and verifies the tickets and stores them. The tickets are checked and obliterated offline by the train's conductor using a portable computer. This report describes the scenario of the electronic ticketing case study and explains some of the functions of the card program.
